Raising a child with ADHD can be distressing and exhausting for the
whole family. But given the appropriate knowledge, and the right
tools, parents can intervene to manage their child's behaviour,
leading to improved relationships at home and, it is hoped, a more
successful time at school. This simple, flexible six-step programme
is full of tried-and-tested ideas for parents and professionals
supporting families of young children with ADHD. By practicing the
techniques and strategies, parents will gain confidence in their
parenting and, over time, will improve the child's management of
the condition. The programme includes games that will help improve
the child's attention, exercises to develop patience and tips for
supporting the child in successful self-organization. There are
also plenty of useful ideas for developing communication between
parents and schools. Based on research and extensive clinical
experience, Step by Step Help for Children with ADHD will help
families to adapt their parenting to the child, improving
relationships and behaviours in the home and at play group.
